CAMILO IS FREE!
STATEMENT FROM CAMILO:
"I want to thank all the people and all the organizations who
have supported my family and me throughout this most difficult time
in our lives. I am now free from prison, but it was because of all
of you that I remained a free man during my incarceration. I was not
able to read all the mail that was sent, in part because prison rules
did not allow it, and in part because I received thousands upon thousands
of letters from all over the world. In time I will read all of them,
and I will answer as many as I can. From the bottom of my heart, and
on behalf of my family, my attorneys, and myself, thank you all.
At the present moment, there aren't any specific plans for the
near future, other than to spend time with my family. But I certainly
want to continue to lend my voice to the movement for Peace and Justice,
of which I feel privileged to be a part. In time I will share my experiences
with you. Please check this website to stay updated on any events for
the future.
Thank you again for all your support. God bless you all."
BACKGROUND: On May 21, 2004, 28-year-old Sgt. Camilo Mejia was sentenced
to one year in prison for refusing to return to fight in Iraq. Camilo
spent six months in combat in Iraq, then returned for a 2-week furlough
to the US. There he reflected on what he had seen, including the abuse
of prisoners and the killing of civilians. He concluded that the war
was illegal and immoral, and decided that he would not return. In March
2004 he turned himself in to the US military and filed an application
for conscientious objector status. |
